The 16 week program finished up with the highly enjoyable Goulburn Gift.
The club has enjoyed good solid growth in numbers over the past four season. This is due to a huge amount of behind the scenes dedication of a small but passionate committee.
We came into this season with big boots to fill, as our club had won the prestigious award of “Club of the Year” out of 15 clubs affiliated with ACT Athletics. We hit the ground running, and pulled off another successful season!
With such an interest in our sport, it inspired the committee to refresh the idea of buying timing gates for the club for the next season, and our parents got behind a chocolate fundraiser!
We introduced a club mascot, who got to meet some very famous athletes at the Canberra track classic, and Sally Person even named him “Humphrey” for us.
We have worked really hard to foster an interest in Senior Athletics amongst our juniors, to keep them interested in the sport, and show them the pathways in athletics.
We have had some of those junior athletes progress through, and then represent Goulburn and the ACT in Australian Junior Championships, Various State Championships and event National Championships. It is amazing to see so much young talent coming through, and they have all been fostered through our Little Athletics Program right here at Hudson Park!
But back at home, the season winds up with the Goulburn Gift race! Its an exciting vibrant finish to the season, and we hope that these kids will all return for the 2015/16 season in October. But in the mean time, watch out for the Goulburn Mulwaree Kids at the School Carnivals, they are fired up and ready to go!! Traditionally, all perform very very well at school level. With a high percentage representing their schools at the various School State Levels!
Also a reminder, not to forget the Goulburn Mulwaree Little Athletics Presentation Night held at our Major Sponsors – The Goulburn RSL on the March 26 at 6pm.
